Replacing Rear Air Bag Suspension Springs 2018 Dodge Ram 1500 Rebel Black

[@nealstanley5270]

I am trying to diagnose my air suspension problem. The rear is fine but the front will sag on both sides after vehicle sits for a few days. Once I drive it the system will work just fine. Any suggestions on where to start looking? I already had it at the dealer, they keep wanting to soak me for diagnostic checks. They stated on my paper work, the system is working fine but they are also saying, there is probably a leak. They told me to diagnose properly they would need to keep the vehicle for a few days and could cost as much as another $600 and that's on top of the $200 I already paid them. Getting frustrating.

@@nealstanley5270 I understand your frustrations, that price is a little excessive but it can become time consuming to find out exactly what’s wrong, I would start by first getting the truck back up and level again followed by a soapy water leak spray on the tops of the front air bag fittings

@@Tech-28 Thank you for the response. I will give that a try within the next few days.

@@Tech-28 Just some other info, my truck was sitting all week, I went out and the front was sagging quite a bit. But as soon as I start the vehicle it immediately goes to normal. Is that normal to do that? Or maybe a good sign there is not any major issues??

[@nealstanley5270]

Sorry but one more question, Is there any lines towards the back of the truck that control just the front air struts that I should also check for leaks? Thanks in advance.

@@nealstanley5270 it should stay at regular ride height regardless of how long it sits, I’m sure it has a small leak somewhere

Should've installed the air line before setting the bag in place,some good pointers nonetheless but mostly nonsense and a try hard guy,keeping the chassis clean from salt and stuff will save you tons of issues.
